Description

It's possible for console producer to give up too soon if it can't find a leader of a topic. Increasing message-send-max-retries would resolve this but. Console producer doesn't provide options to set message-send-max-retries and retry-backoff-ms.

"The leader may be unavailable transiently, which can fail the sending of a message. This property specifies the number of retries when such failures occur"?

1. Brokers can fail receiving the message for multiple reasons, and being unavailable transiently is just one of them.
2. This properties specifies the number of retires before the producer give up and drop this message.

Could you modify the description of message-send-max-retries:
"The leader may be unavailable transiently, which can fail the sending of a message. This property specifies the number of retries when such failures occur"?

Sure. do you want me to change description as
"Brokers can fail receiving the message for multiple reasons, and being unavailable transiently is just one of them.This properties specifies the number of retires before the producer give up and drop this message."
